According to a study that summarizes 188 countries data, one third of the world’s population seem to be obese.

Furthermore, there are no countries that succeeded in reducing obesity population in the past 33 years.
ある188カ国のデータをまとめた研究によると、世界人口の3分の1が肥満であるそうです。
WHO has defined people with more than 30 BMI as obesity, and in the criteria, about 5% Japanese are obesity.
さらに過去33年間、肥満人口を減らすことに成功した国は一つも無いそうです。
However, most Japanese develop diabetes before their BMI reach 30, so we can’t gain weight in healthy.
WHOではBMIが30以上を肥満としており、この基準では日本人の約5％が肥満になります。
For the reason, the Japan Society for the Study of Obesity has defined Japanese people with more than 25 BMI as obesity.
しかし日本人はBMIが30を超える前に糖尿病などを発病するため、健康的に太ることができません。
The obesity rate in Japan also tends to increase, but the BMI average value of 10-20’s women was decreased.
そのため、日本肥満学会では日本人に対してBMI25以上を肥満としております。
Most Japanese women desire to lose their weight, and it’s said that around one in eight is too skinny.
日本人も肥満人口は増加傾向にありますが、10～20代の女性は減少傾向にありました。
In particular, the average calorie intake of 20’s Japanese women is 1628 kcal, which is lower than the food shortage days immediately after the end of the war, and the number seems exceptionally low level in the world.
日本人女性は痩せたいと思う願望が強く、8人に1人が痩せすぎて危険だと言われています。
